The dialogue along with the scenery and soundtrack truly gives the viewer a sense of foreboding. Something ominous and unknown is dawning in the horizon, can you feel it?
There're only 12 tracks on the Ghostbusters OST. At least according to the one I found on Amazon. Is there any possible way to get the track that starts at 1:13?
There's two soundtracks. The first was released with the movie. The second one contained lots of original music which had never been released on a soundtrack before. It was a limited edition, and the composer himself put it out. It was released a few years ago, and sold out like almost instantly. I don't know if that track is on it, but it might be.

This scene somewhat reminds me of those videos that have been popping up recently where people are hearing strange, trumpet like sounds coming from nowhere
This scene has always stuck in my my mind since I was a kid as well. Very atmospheric. What about the name of the song at the end of the scene? I could never ever find it.

One of the most poignant scenes ever filmed. That look of realisation on Ray's face is perfectly timed. A moment of clarity and stillness in a world of shit. It captures the true horror of their circumstances in just a few words.
Being serious now BUT anyone else feel with Australia being hit with floods, new Zealand hit by earthquake and Japan being hit with a earthquake and now with a tsunami hitting more countries.
I mean anyone else feel THIS SCENE came to anyone's esle mind straight away as for me it did
@AbhiB Now that you mention it, there is alot connection with this scene, and what's been happening in reality in recent years. The natural disasters, the unstable global economy, war on terrorism, and everything else that has been occuring, it appears that we are INDEED coming close to Judgement Day.
you're right, this is actually one of my favorite scenes from the movie, I loved the first one because it had alot of dark overtones, the second one was made more for kids!!!
In many great stories there is a calm before the storm; this is a perfect illustration of that scenario. I won't bury this comment in details, but the feeling I get from watching this never fades.
REVS 7: 12 - Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, [be] unto our God for ever and ever. Amen
@Oeagrusson most bibles are under copyright (which is ridiculous) I've always wondered if that is the reason they said the wrong verses and made up a 2nd part of the verse (the seas boiled and the skys fell)
@theambassadors wow i never realised that was made up , what i remember mostly about Revelations is the devil arrives on earth and all nations fight him. the devil is a 4 headed dragon
@TURBODORK2 in revelation the antichrist arrives on earth and rules it through a one-world-government, THEN the devil possesses him and for the most part the nations are on his side until Jesus comes back and takes him down... with a proton pack (my translation)
@Oeagrusson The mistake was likely intentional to make the scene more realistic. Since Ray is reciting the verse from the top of his head it's unlikely he would get every detail correct in reality.
This movie is considered a "comedy". But honestly, I think its one of the creepiest movies of all time. Sure, much of it is cheezy, and it does have its funny moments. The thing that makes is a legitimate scary movie is the ending (up until mr stay puft). The scene with Gozer crossing over on the sky scraper is one of the creepiest scenes of all time, realistic, and how I might imagine it happening. I would say on the level of poltergeist.
Your title still makes me laugh. I recall seeing this at our Arlington theater (Fox landmark in Santa Barbara). I remember a revelation about the sound. The incredible Dolby Surround sound. Back then it was a luxury when they got it right. And these analogue tracks were pumping back then. This is still the best film from the past 30 years. There is no doubt. It's only competitor came out the following year, a little film called Back to the Future!!!
god dammmit !! i remember this part of the movie i actually watched 20 million times ! there is something about that scene that got stucked up in mined ! j love that movie !
This is the film's only scene that makes use of a helicopter shot. I think that the more distant and moving angle puts the characters into strong contrast with the size of the city around them. It adds to the ominous & threatening mood for the scene. The impending crisis is made more acute by highlighting the (comparatively) insignificant proportion of the ghostbusters to the world (and supernatural world) around them. The car moves just as time does towards the unavoidable finale.
A friend of mine found the Elmer Bernstein score on the internet for me, wish I could tell ya's where, but I got it and it's awesome. This was some of the best music of the movie, dark and forboading.
Great scene, not sure if it's best of all time, but def in my top 10.
Bill Murray said in an interview that this scene gives him the chills and it's his favorite of the movie. Especially because you see the ecto-1 crossing the bridge + the music and NY skyline in the backdrop.
I loved Ghostbusters as a child. It's still my favorite movie. As an adult, it boggles me to think about what the movie managed to get past the radar. Though this scene brings up Christian mythology, only one god shows up in the whole movie: Gozer. Was it the Sumerians who got it right? Is there a pantheon of gods? Yet, in the end, it isn't the Christian deity who saves the world, but rather mere mortals: the Ghostbusters. The implications of that may bring some to see this movie in a new light.

@mattthepale When I saw it as a young kid, I just took it for the BIG Question. That happens to be my favorite scene. I sure that in the good book it talks about Saddom and Goomora (sorry about misspells I'm not a big reader) that while there are those who believe in God the land and lives shall not be destroyed. Hence the ending of gb!
@mattthepale christian isnt "mythology". obviously you dont know your history or science. just another secular humanist bafoon who thinks we came from monkeys. ha. you dont have anyone fooled. you also have to remember that this is a MOVIE and not to be taken super seriously. God in the end has already prevailed over those unbelievers and athiests. the movie is fun but not to be taken that seriously obviously.
@burtonrules123 yeah! Tell me about it...I hate those damned scientist fools and their "facts" and their "evidence". The only evidence I need is the good book.
@mattthepale Well, the Christian mythology never denied there were other gods, it just advised against worshipping them. I'd say Gozer sort of enforces that recommendation :-D
@mattthepale "Yet, in the end, it isn't the Christian deity who saves the world, but rather mere mortals: the Ghostbusters. The implications of that may bring some to see this movie in a new light."
*Ahem* ... The NEXT time someone asks you if you're a GOD. You say... YES!"
@mattthepale strange you say this because as I give my testimony of coming to God through Jesus Christ, I always mention two things : Ghostbusters and the OC Supertones. Ghostbusters because it was them doing battle with Gozer in the movie, Tiamat in Citizen Ghost- that opened my skeptic mind (even as a child) to the possibility that the supernatural existed.
@sluggo06 Yes it does, let me throw this one at you, we have more proof now of the paranormal then ever before and the proof is getting to be more and more everyday, as in videos, pictures, recordings.. Yeah we have more research on it and more technogoly but it seems like the dead is awful restless. Almost like Winston says, like the dead are rising from the grave. Think about that for a while and its kinda scary. And it says in the Bible near the end you'll not be able to tell one season PT1
@sluggo06 PT2 from the other and have you noticed how wild weather is every season now? like right now, its fall and still in the 90s. and all the weird storms and stuff we have, if everyone would pick up the Bible and do some reading, they'd understand that a lot of the signs that the Bible says will show before the end are in fact starting to show. Then if you believe that and then if you believe in the mayan prophecy only being two years away, it gets really scary to think about it all.
i agree the one only serious scene, i think people always read too much into biblical content. in films. Its like samuel jackson in pulp fiction. Its the way its delivered. I never noticed the two tower in the background, thats a good point, but this is 1984.
Very interesting, nuanced scene - it doesn't seem to endorse either viewpoint. Ray doesn't seem to care about the larger implications, he's just taking a scientific tunnel-vision approach. While Winston doesn't seem to care about the practical implications, he just wants to tell someone about his faith (as is the case with many Christians).
This is so powerful. What a performance by Ernie. HE SHOULD HAVE GOT AN OSCAR FOR THIS!!! ERNIE ERNIE!!! Best scene in the whole film, that song IS CLASS!!!!!
im a Christian so im totally on winstons side when i watch this scene. ernie hudson is a real life Christian as well, i have the Bible narration with lots of famous ppl and hes one of them on it lol. notice how calm he is in this scene, more confident. "i LOVE Jesus' style".
@sluggo06 yes ive read various places that he is a Christian, he also did a voice on the audio CD version of the Bible (forget what character he does the voice for) but yes he did an interview for it and you can tell hes really into his faith. all around cool guy.
Ditto. I hadn't seen this film in nearly a decade and re-watched it recently - I think I like it even more than I did as a kid. There's so many great, subtle bits of dialogue, etc, that I didn't get as a kid ("Listen! Do you smell that?").
THANK YOU for putting this up, been searching for it for ages. I've been able to quote this scene word for words since I was 7. Even as a kid I knew it was the coolest scene ever.
Hear, hear! A mainstream film that touches on the topic of religion, without turning into a polemic for or against? Pretty hard to imagine something like that being made today!
The title for the track that the music for the last part of this scene is 18: Elmer Bernstein-Peter Arrives(I Am Zuul/Myth). Search it on Youtube it's on here.
i cannot find the song at the end of this scene. ive read that its called judgement day by varese sarabande, and that its called zuul? I looked on the itunes store and the song isnt on the ghostbusters soundtrack they offer. Can anyone give me a bit more direction on where to find this song???
@Chevypower265 "Ghostbusters (Original Score) - 13 There Is No Dana Only Zuul - Myth - Elmer Bernstein " type thats into youtube. the piece of music your looking for starts at 8min24secs"
You, know, it's weird, Ray says here he never met God, but in the game he mentions about a time when he was in Seminary.... interesting huh? Maybe a little history there?
I was about 95% sure that once they turned on the music it was going to be....BZZZIIITT.... Never going to give you up! never going to let you down!...
Song is called "Judgment Day" and its on the Varese Sarabande released Ghostbusters Soundtrack by Elmer Bernstein, the beginning of the scene's music actually is still the song from the previous scene "Dana's Room" Purchase with that in mind (the whole soundtrack is awesome)
"Song is called "Judgment Day" and its on the Varese Sarabande released Ghostbusters Soundtrack by Elmer Bernstein, the beginning of the scene's music actually is still the song from the previous scene "Dana's Room" Purchase with that in mind (the whole soundtrack is awesome) "
yo theambassadors ive seen the ghostbuster movie a million times and i thought i was the only one who thought this scene was amazing it gave me goosbumps everytime i watched it. its just perfect the acting, the mood, the music, and then the awesome background of the New York skyline
@theambassadors --I love this scene the most as well, I made a Fan film, splicing scenes from the movie with Interviews and extras from the blu-ray and dvd, This scene is the opening of my movie..of a 6 hour fan film/documentary I made..
I agree, this is one of my favorite scenes from that movie and one of my favorite of all time. When I become a Director, I hope I can make scenes as good as this despite the horrible trash we have as movies these days. Awesome scene.
My favourite scene from the movie - and it's hard to choose just one. Love the way that bookends the 2nd act with the that small conversation and shot of NY at dawn
I don't know if it's the best scene of cinema history but hey, good choice. :-) I love the movie and this scene is very good, kind of chilly and much subtler than it'd seem. Look at the way it's shot: they're crossing a bridge, which suggests transition - even more so, in these very 90 seconds night is turning into dawn...
It is called "Judgment Day" and its on the Varese Sarabande released Ghostbusters Soundtrack by Elmer Bernstein, the beginning of the scene's music actually is still the song from the previous scene "Dana's Room" Purchase with that in mind (the whole soundtrack is awesome)
oh yes, i do not hold to the belief that just because it makes AFI (which this does) that its great. One of my requirements for a great movie is it entertains the "average" person and not just film professors. Ghostbusters is the ultimate example of genius and this philosophy of entertainment.
During pre-production, this sequence was used as an audition scene for actors who were auditioning for the role of Winston. :)

i agree the one only serious scene, i think people always read too much into biblical content. in films. Its like samuel jackson in pulp fiction. Its the way its delivered. I never noticed the two tower in the background, thats a good point, but this is 1984.

Very interesting, nuanced scene - it doesn't seem to endorse either viewpoint. Ray doesn't seem to care about the larger implications, he's just taking a scientific tunnel-vision approach. While Winston doesn't seem to care about the practical implications, he just wants to tell someone about his faith (as is the case with many Christians).

@sluggo06 yes ive read various places that he is a Christian, he also did a voice on the audio CD version of the Bible (forget what character he does the voice for) but yes he did an interview for it and you can tell hes really into his faith. all around cool guy.

Ditto. I hadn't seen this film in nearly a decade and re-watched it recently - I think I like it even more than I did as a kid. There's so many great, subtle bits of dialogue, etc, that I didn't get as a kid ("Listen! Do you smell that?").

The title for the track that the music for the last part of this scene is 18: Elmer Bernstein-Peter Arrives(I Am Zuul/Myth). Search it on Youtube it's on here.

i cannot find the song at the end of this scene. ive read that its called judgement day by varese sarabande, and that its called zuul? I looked on the itunes store and the song isnt on the ghostbusters soundtrack they offer. Can anyone give me a bit more direction on where to find this song???

Song is called "Judgment Day" and its on the Varese Sarabande released Ghostbusters Soundtrack by Elmer Bernstein, the beginning of the scene's music actually is still the song from the previous scene "Dana's Room" Purchase with that in mind (the whole soundtrack is awesome)

imo the cliche'd religious reference [even for 1984] is the weakest part of the film, not the best.

I don't know if it's the best scene of cinema history but hey, good choice. :-) I love the movie and this scene is very good, kind of chilly and much subtler than it'd seem. Look at the way it's shot: they're crossing a bridge, which suggests transition - even more so, in these very 90 seconds night is turning into dawn...

oh yes, i do not hold to the belief that just because it makes AFI (which this does) that its great. One of my requirements for a great movie is it entertains the "average" person and not just film professors. Ghostbusters is the ultimate example of genius and this philosophy of entertainment.

Fast forward to 3:03 and watch from there onward. Robert Shaw's delivery of the story of the USS Indianapolis is far better then this.
